K2 Spares kits for sale in UK/Europe

[Colin]

Hi all,
Good News for those of you in the UK/Europe!
I’ve got some K2 spares kits for sale.

If you’ve contacted Iron Horse, you will know that they will only send kits to us in Europe using UPS which they quote as $60!
On top of this you may have to pay Import Duty, Tax and a Customs Fee!
This basically makes buying a few kits ridiculously expensive.

I went ahead and ordered some kits for myself and others to split the overhead costs to something more reasonable. As some of these costs are “one off” regardless of the number of kits, I ordered a few spare ones for anyone else who may need them.

The kits I’ve got and the prices are:
RK002      856 World Cup Pivot            £15
RK004      X Link Seals                  £8
RK005      Vector Seals            £8
RK006      X Link & Vector Bearings      £8
RK008      4000/5500 Pivot Kit            £8

Post & Packing will be £2 in the UK, £3 to Europe.
Add on 68p Recorded delivery if you want to track it in the UK.

Contact me if you're not sure which kit you need and I'll check the compatibility on the instructions as they list all models that they fit.

If you want any, drop me an email at: colin.j.simmonds”at”bt.com
(replace the “at” with an @).

Payment preferred by UK cheque or Bank transfer.
Or Paypal - only from Europe, (unless anyone knows a better way to pay from Euros to Pounds?)

Let me know asap.

Cheers!
Colin.

Hey Colin!

Did you get my mail?

I could do with rebuilding my Vector-1s...  what bits are in 'RK005'?

Cheers

I currently have two crosslinks.
What kits do I need to make a complete rebuild of one of them?

Regards, Ricardo.

Hope this helps.

Apparantly you can SWIFT/ IBAN transfer the money from your accounts to mine if it's zero cost for you.
email me for bank details.

ALternativley you can just post me the equivalent Euros in Cash bank notes. It should be safe enough.
Zé Diogo has done this succesfully.

Excellent.  How much of a rush are you in Colin?  I'll definitely have an RK005 please, but I'm not sure whether I need the RK006 & won't be able to check 'til Sunday...

[Colin]

No rush, I'll stick one of each aside for you.

Any pivot kits for a 955 frame??

Yep!
See my other posting on your original question.
I bought a couple of spares of each for people in Europe.
By the time I had paid The P&P from the US and the import duty etc, a RK002 comes out at £15 plus the P&P to Oz which will be £4.

email me if you need more details.

****!  Sorry Colin - totally forgot about this!  (Poor li'l 'flex has been neglected recently - bought another retro steed :-S)

I've still not investigated which bits I need, but I won't mess you around any longer - if you've still got both I'll have them.

IM'd you with details
